I think everyone here just got the answer.

Yes. I'll happily let my posted opinions "give the answer" as to my knowledge of the subject at hand.

Lets sum this sad thread up:

Someone asked about Uncle Mo's cholangiohepatitis.

Many opinions were given. Most think that everyone involved is lying, the horse is through and will never race again, etc. (and, of course, the undercurrent unstated assessments of the trainer and what he does with horses in his barn, that everyone - even the local vets in Lexington - are aware of)

My opinion disagreed with the majority and the regulars. A group attack ensued, with Mawhip and blackthroatedwind ending by trying to go after my professional bonafides publicly in order to discredit me and my opinion.

Yeah, that pretty well sums it up.

And most importantly, Uncle Mo dares to get back to training.

We all know you have a wonderful grasp of the subject matter. We would just like to know where you sharpen your craft. Someone with your enormous skill set and knowledge must have a very impressive resume.

My skill set and knowledge are average to veterinarians. It is not the same as the skill set of other posters here.

And boy, they sure don't like that

Tell us again how you know Dr. Byars is risking his professional reputation and lying about Uncle Mo not being on antibiotics now? Was he also lying in the last interview where he said the horse was on antibiotics? Or is he just lying now? Why do you think he is lying about the horse?

Read the article. He said the horse was on no medications whatsoever. Maybe Mo is not on antibiotics but that is not what they claimed.

And why would he lie? Why does anyone lie? Why did Anthony Wiener lie about his wiener. I don't know.

He said the horse was on antibiotics in the last public interview some time ago. Now he says the horse isn't on antibiotics anymore. You said he was lying about that. As a doctor of veterinary medicine, that makes perfect sense to me, regarding a horse recovering from cholangiohepatitis. You say Dr. Byars is lying about it.

I don't care to see people slam the professional reputation of Dr. Doug Byars on a public internet list. So what are your bonafides to say so, and call this well-respected DVM a liar?

A group attack? No, you offered opinions, and as happens on message boards, some disagreed. This is not a " group attack. " In fact, the attacking was done by you, accusing people of a plethora of things, and using full names ( I can use yours as well but don't believe it's appropriate ). You are the aggressive one here.

You claimed to make these kinds of diagnoses every day. Nobody said you did this other than you. Why is it then wrong to ask where you are employed? You are the one that said it was your job. You say people are trying to discredit you...but actually the opposite is true. You seem happy to throw around my professional credentials here....why do the same rules not apply to you.

It's a discussion. That means people will disagree. If you don't like that, then why did you throw yourself into the middle of it?

LOL - what nonsense. You are not talking about cholangiohepatitis. You are instead demanding my credentials and attempting to discredit me.

My publicly stated opinion is right there. You don't like it, give your own, and say why mine is wrong.

Your disingenuous attempt to "blame me" for defending my opinion from other posters is absurd and laughable. You are amusing

And I am done. Genuine Risk, I hope you are happy Uncle Mo is returning to training. Let's hope he continues back without problem.

Be censurable with your word. Speak with pomposity.

Really? What answer is that? That Riot is intelligent enough not to play into such an obvious ploy?
